For an extra nutty flavor, toast the chopped pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes before adding them to the pie filling. If you don't have hazelnut liqueur, you can substitute with vanilla extract or a splash of bourbon for a different flavor profile. To prevent the pie crust from browning too quickly, you can cover the edges with aluminum foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
